I’ve seen scoring tools around the craft world for years now, and I always kind of scoffed at them. I would always just use my metal-edged ruler and a bone folder to score with. Why buy something extra?
Well, after trying out the Martha Stewart Scoring Board for the past 3 days, I can already tell you I don’t know how I survived this long without it! Made of durable plastic, it’s a large board that has scoring indentations ever 1/8th of an inch! It’s also open on the right hand side AND the bottom, so it will incorporate really large sheets of paper.
So, what exactly do you get in the package? You get the scoring board itself, a scoring tool (otherwise known as a bone folder,) and an envelope template. Also included is a chart with standard sizes of boxes, cards and envelopes. This is SO handy to have!

Flip up the tray lid and you'll find standard measurements!
At the top of the scoring board you’ll find a little tray – and handy place to keep your bone folder, and maybe a pencil. There is also a sticker inside that has a list of box and card measurements. There is also a slot on the back of the tool where your envelope template will sit when you are not using it. Again, this is GREAT design! You won’t be looking for it everywhere!

The envelope template slides into the back for storage.
Stay tuned- over the next few weeks I’ll tutorials for you and ideas for projects you can make with your MS Scoring Board. I think you’ll love it as much as I do!
